Copycat Applebees Quesadillas Recipes

Steps:

• Be sure to have everything handy, as these move quickly.
• Spread butter lightly on one side of flour tortilla.
• Place buttered side down on heated non-stick skillet.
• Immediately add bacon bits, cover with cheese and spoon on pico de gallo.
• Spread butter lightly on one side of another flour tortilla.
• Place second tortilla buttered side UP on top of fixings in skillet.
• Check underside of first flour tortilla.
• If browned to your satisfaction, carefully flip quesadilla over to brown second tortilla.
• When second tortilla is browned sufficiently, remove quesadilla from skillet.
• Serve warm, with dipping condiments of your choice.

Steps:

• Brush one side of each tortilla with shortening.
• Place one tortilla, shortening side down on work surface. Spread chipotle sauce evenly on one tortilla.
• If chicken was not freshly grilled, then microwave chicken approximately 45 seconds, then distribute evenly on top of sauce on tortilla.
• Evenly put Quesa Filling on top of chicken. Then, cover with the other tortilla, shortening side up.
• Brown on griddle or in non stick pan evenly on both sides until internal filling is thoroughly heated.
• Use shredded lettuce, sour cream, green onion and salsa as accompaniments. I like to add crumbled bacon on top.

Steps:

• For hamburgers:.
• Combine all seasoning ingredrients. Use one heaping Tblsp of seasoning mix per pound of hamburger meat. Mix into hamburger meat until well combined. Fry or grill. ( I used George Foreman grill).
• Assembling the complete burger:.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Spread butter on one side of each tortilla. Put one tortilla, butter side down in the hot pan. Sprinkle the cheeses evenly onto the center of the tortilla in the pan- but not all the way to the edges. Put the tomato, onion, bacon and jalapeno over the cheese, add the cooked seasoned burger and cover with the other tortilla butter side up (like a grilled cheese sandwhich). When the bottom is browned, about 45-90 seconds, flip the quesadilla and grill the other side. Remove the quesidilla from the pan and using a pizza cutter, cut throught the middle. Serve.
